The Legisla ve Commi ee is responsible for monitoring and working on Capitol Hill and repor ng back to the
Associa on. Addi onally, the Commi ee also tracks any legisla on that may affect the Dona on Program. We push
the NASASP agenda in Washington, D.C. and beyond. Members of this year's Commi ee include Kristy Fierro,
Chairwoman (TX), Dewey Blevins (KY), Holly Gustner (MN), Butch Campbell (AR), Tony Johnson (MD), Marvin
Manassa (DC), Floyd Coburn (VA), Chris Barela (NM), Steve Perica (AZ).
EXCHANGE SALE AUTHORITY
At their mee ng last October, the Na onal Officers iden fied working to revise the Exchange Sale Authority as the
number one priority of NASASP’s Legisla ve efforts for the year. Efforts have included developing a posi on paper,
and mee ng at the Commi ee level in the House and Senate to discuss and advocate our posi on paper.
REVISE HUMVEE REGUATIONS/POLICY
The second highest priority this year was to work to reverse the GSA policy on Humvees. The strategy has been to
again educate Congress and the appropriate Commi ees on the issue. Our request to each office was a le er to the
GSA Administrator, urging her to change the policy and reduce the restric ons on the disposal of the Humvees. This
effort culminated in a mee ng at GSA Headquarters in Washington, D.C. with the Deputy Commissioner of the
Federal Acquisi on Service, Mr. Kevin Youel Page, who promised to review the issue immediately with his staff and
legal.
OSD/DOD/Deputy Assistant Secretary to the Secretary of Defense Alan Estevez
In January 2016, NASASP par cipated in its second mee ng with the Director of DLA, Lt. General Andrew Busch. The
result of the mee ng was a posi on paper given to his office outlining our requests for modifica on of DLA policy,
including; concerns over property being acquired by the 1033 Program, overseas screening in the Middle East, access
for repair on all overseas bases, and finally, screening all property, including demil property at the Sierra Army
Depot. We recently updated our requests again to DLA and are awai ng their response.
SERVICE EDUCATION ACTIVITES (SEAs) TITLE 40 AMENDMENT
NASASP con nues to make efforts to amend Title 40 for the Service Educa onal Ac vi es so that they may be able to
acquire not only DOD property, but also Federal Civilian Property. We are currently looking to put together a
bipar san sponsorship in September to get a bill onto the floor for considera on and a vote.
S1400/HR2221. “THE VETERAN'S SMALL BUSINESS ENHANCEMENT ACT”
Work con nues on these bills that would allow Veteran‐owned small businesses to acquire Federal surplus personal
property in very much the same manner as our minority‐owned 8(a) businesses. The Senate version is ready for a
vote on the Senate floor. It is hoped that this bill would be adopted by the House and passed as well, clearing a path
for passage into law and a signature by the President. Con nued on next page…….

Con nued from previous page….
S2509/HR4655
These bills were placed on the floor by the House Oversight and Government Reform Commi ee and the Senate
Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Commi ee. They wanted to address Real Property Reform and how GSA
handles revenues from sale of real property. However, they also included personal property, including modifica ons
on how museums are qualified as eligible donees. NASASP was successful in ge ng the personal property
modifica ons out of the bill before it was introduced to Congress with the excep on of the museum changes which
are generally favorable for NASASP.
SMALL BUSINESS REQUESTS/CONCERNS
NASASP con nues to address small business concerns with the current MOA with Congress in an a empt to get GSA
and SBA to sit down now and make changes, especially concerning overseas property. We are a emp ng to set up a
2016 Senate Hearing on how the Federal Surplus Personal Property Program has assisted small business for the last
17 years all across the country and to highlight both Programs.
The Commi ee will con nue to iden fy and work towards the goals of the Associa on. As always, if you have any
ques ons about the above subjects or other legisla ve efforts, do not hesitate to call on your na onal officers or
Execu ve Director.

NASASP Legislative Committee Report
NASASP President’s Inkwell
Wow, what a tremendously successful Annual Mee ng in Buffalo. President’s dinner and awards at Niagara Falls will be a hard venue to beat. Thanks to Shane, Marilyn, and the rest of the Planning Commi ee for all of their hard work. It is very much appreciated. Having 26 states represented with about 80 par cipants (state, federal and vendors) made for lively and informa ve discussions. Just as important is ge ng the membership feedback on topics to focus on over the next year, primarily exchange sale and excess. The officers will meet in October to discuss the plan on these issues.
Also, as we start the upcoming fiscal year, I’d like to thank Roger Stone (OK) for his years of service in NASASP as a na onal officer in the Secretary posi on. Roger’s par cipa on and perspec ve has always been a tremendous asset to the organiza on. Thank you for your commitment to NASASP.
I’d also like welcome Mike Harris (AR) as the newest na onal officer, taking over for Roger as the Secretary. Mike’s years of experience in the program will be an incredible benefit to us. Welcome Mike!

This edi on of the NASASP Newsle er features a summary of my work for the Associa on for the past year. As always,
I welcome ques ons, comments and sugges ons from all members of the Associa on. Thank you again this year for
your support!
Legisla ve
Since last year's mee ng in Fort Worth, I have visited with approximately 100 different Congressional Offices. I work
with the NASASP Washington, D.C. consultant, Mr. John Chwat and his office to develop strategy and mee ngs all
aimed at accomplishing the NASASP goals as defined by the Na onal Officers and the Associa on. In addi on to the
Congressional visits, I also have visited with a number of other na onal associa ons like Na onal Property
Management Associa on and Na onal Associa on of Coun es and also of Ci es. I met with a number of Veteran
Service Organiza ons, including the American Legion, the VFW, the Student Veterans of America, the Blind Veterans of
America and the Disabled American Veterans to name a few. I also met with the na onal officers in strategic mee ngs
and conference calls, the Director of DLA, the Deputy Commissioner of the Federal Acquisi on Service of the General
Services Administra on (GSA) and the Assistant Secretary of Defense in the Pentagon.
Fundraising
Since 2011, we have made a more concentrated effort to raise funds for NASASP events, specifically our na onal
mee ngs and one event on Capitol Hill to celebrate the passage of P.L. 13‐26, the Veteran's Bill, which established
Veteran Services Organiza ons as eligible donee organiza ons under Title 40 for the Federal Surplus Personal Property
Program. Since 2011, we have raised approximately $50,000.
Summary
There can be no question that NASASP has been very successful in all of these ventures this year. Legislatively, not only
have we made great strides in the passage of the Veteran's Bill, but Congress has engaged with NASASP prior to the
introduction of HR 4465 and invited NASASP to be part of the testimony in Congress on the GSA Weapon's Program.
Representing NASASP to a variety of other national and international organizations has given NASASP the reputation of
being the authority on state and local government issues, including asset management.
As we enter our 70th year, we have put ourselves in a position to question everything that happens to our Programs,
including the current Humvee policy which we have been working on for over a year. A change to this policy will result
in a very tangible gain for all of our state agencies that choose to participate. If we choose to work together and
expand our reach, there are no limits to what we can take on and conquer. I look forward to accepting this challenge
and working for you in the days to come! Working together we can make this Program, exactly what we all strive
towards, a better one for the taxpayers of the United States of America and our SASPS.
Best wishes and as always if you have any ques ons, feel free to contact me at 717‐389‐5100 or email at Execu [email protected].

A former US Coast Guard (USCG) vessel, also known as
Vessel 55118, was awarded to the Florida Department
of Environmental Protec on/Florida Geological Survey
(FDEP/FGS) through the U.S. General Services
Administra on’s Federal Surplus Personal Property
Program. The vessel is 55 feet long to the transom at
its stern, and 58 feet 9 inches long to the end of the
swim pla orm which lies beyond the transom. Its
beam overall is 16’10”. It has a naviga onal dra of 8
feet when fully fueled and loaded to its rated cargo
capacity of 4,000 lbs. The vessel’s range is 900 nau cal
miles. The vessel can transit seas up to 6 foot and
handle winds up to 30 knots, and is powered by two
10 cylinder diesel engines. The vessel has a 21.5‐kW,
single phase, 120 VAC, 60 Hz generator running off a
dedicated diesel engine. The vessel’s fuel capacity at
95% is 855 gallons. The vessel is equipped with a crane
which was formerly used by the USCG to hoist and
secure buoys and aids to naviga on.
The 55118 vessel will replace the R/V GeoQuest, the
FGS’s aging research vessel. The 55118 will be used by
the FGS in the collec on of geological and geophysical
data from the con nental shelf adjacent to the coast
of Florida. Those data will be used to expand the FGS’s
mapping efforts from land onto the con nental shelf
and to qualify and quan fy poten al reserves of beach restora on quality sand lying on the con nental shelf
Submi ed by Dan Phelps,
The vessel possesses a fully hydraulic ar culated crane with a 20’ outreach and a
swing rota on arc of 360°, capable of 1800 lbs. of li anywhere within the sweep
envelope of the crane head and 3,600 lbs. over the middle of the vessel’s stern. The
crane was installed approximately two years ago. Shown in the picture to the le ,
forward of the crane is the back door of the cabin and a door that allows access to the
workshop located below the main deck. Access to that area is also available through
the berthing area. Workshop equipment and furnishings include storage shelves, a
face washing sta on, a hanging locker, and 120‐VAC and 12‐VDC outlets.

The truck tractor pictured above is one of three acquired by Texas A&M University’s Logis cs Services Division in 2015
‐2016. Vehicles like this one are used as part of Texas A&M University's Veterinary Emergency Team (VET). The
mission of the VET is to provide veterinary medical support for animals in disaster situa ons, including canine search
and rescue teams. The team also educates and trains veterinary students by offering elec ve courses in emergency
response and management within the first three years of the veterinary curriculum. This Truck Tractor was one of
two on display in the exhibit hall at the 2016 Texas Emergency Management Conference in San Antonio, TX in April.
This event is a ended by thousands of emergency management professionals from state agencies, ci es, coun es,
schools and nonprofits from across Texas. In fact, the Texas State Agency for Surplus Property also exhibited at that
conference, but would never have known that it was Federal Surplus Personal Property on display un l C. J. Mabry,
VET’s Veterinary Emergency Response Coordinator, stopped by the Texas SASP’s booth. The truck tractor had an
original acquisi on cost of $35,000, but the University paid the Texas SASP a handling fee of only $7,500.

Pictured above is a fire truck (in ac on) acquired by the Red Willow County Rural Fire Department in
McCook, Nebraska. The Department acquired this fire truck through the Nebraska SASP who received it
from DLADS Great Lakes, Illinois. The original acquisi on cost of the 1994 Pierce Fire Truck was
$150,000. Paying a service charge of only $15,000 to the SASP, the es mated savings to the fire
department was over $20,000. Seeing a piece of surplus property in such a serious situa on emphasizes
the importance of the Federal Surplus Personal Property Program.

The Glen Echo Volunteer Fire Department operates as part of Montgomery County (Maryland) Department of Fire Rescue Services. The sta on is staffed by 5 career firefighters who are employed by Montgomery County and volunteer EMTs and firefighters. The Glen Echo VFD provides addi onal staffing on nights and weekends. In 2012, the Glen Echo VFD filled out the Maryland SASP Applica on to par cipate in the Federal Surplus Property Program. The Maryland Department of General Services is the designated state agency (SASP) to administer the Federal dona on program in the State of Maryland via the transfer process. A er being approved for the Federal Program, the Maryland SASP was been able to assist Glen Echo VFD in acquiring many items over the last several years. Through the federal program we have helped them obtain a Red Ford Explorer 4x4 (pictured), GMC Sierra Pickup Truck, 1999 Suburban truck (pictured), audio/visual communica on equipment, computers, and gardening implements & tools to name a few. We are proud that the Maryland Department of General Services is helping Public and Educa onal Agencies around the State of Maryland through the Federal Surplus Property Program.

As you may recall from the last newsle er, last year the NASASP Overseas Program Manager, Randy Main, arranged for nine Freightliner 916A3 truck tractors to be shipped to New York. All of them were scheduled to be transformed into snow plows with sander units. The towns involved expected to save $100,000 per truck (as compared to buying the same unit brand new). The photo below is an “a er” shot of the truck that went to the City of Kortright, NY. This is a great example of federal property reuse resul ng in taxpayer savings. It also demonstrates the value of the NASASP Overseas Program’s new procedure, which was set in place a few years ago to enable donees to pay NASASP directly in advance of shipping,
thereby allowing donees in states that have no funds to par cipate in the NASASP overseas program. Un l recently, New York had not par cipated for several years. Now they are regular par cipants in the Overseas Program. What a great success!
NASASP Overseas Program
If you are interested in par cipa ng in the Overseas Program, please contact Randy Main at (207) 441‐4044.
The NASASP Overseas Program has recently shipped eight containerized 1250‐kilowa generators from Korea to various states. The generators were made between 2009 and 2011, and have very low hours on them. The original acquisi on cost is $530,000/each. These units are large enough to be backup generators for hospitals, pumping sta ons, or disaster relief. One of these units is being used at the port facility in Panama City, FL as backup power for the refrigerator containers of fruit coming into the USA. Panama City is one of the main ports where fruit from around the gulf is processed. As the fruit must be inspected before passing on, this generator will make sure the fruit is kept fresh while wai ng for inspec on.
There are currently 10 more available, and all of them have been requested by the Overseas Program. If all of the remaining 10 units are shipped, then the NASASP Overseas Program will have returned $9.5 million dollars worth of property (in original acquisi on value) to be used here in the USA instead of being sold for a frac on of the value.
